Question Question

We purchased a home from an individual acting as a contractor. This was approximately 15 months ago. Within a few months of the purchase, we found out that the heating system was completely mis-installed (dangerously so) and approached the seller. He would not do anything to rectify the situation. My lawyer indicated that a sale in New Hampshire is purely at risk. We ended up spending almost $40k to remove and reinstall the entire HVAC system.

What are the warrantly rules as they apply to an individual acting as a contractor? We were not offered a warranty on any work or materials. This individual has now incorporated and is building a house on speculation. Do I have any legal recourse?
